Above all, the course will emphasize the importance of paying attention to user needs and cognitive functioning in order to design usable systems.', 'User-Centred Design MethodsThis course provides practical knowledge of how to use well-known and established HCI design methods as well as theoretical knowledge of how to think and reasoning on them during the design process.', 'Programming of Interactive systemsThis course provides the fundamentals of programming techniques for interactive systems and generative computer graphics. In particular, we will address programming of interaction for graphical interfaces for mobile and web-based systems.', 'Evaluation techniquesThis course teaches empirical methods to perform user studies and to statistically analyse them. Different evaluation methods will be introduced for different tasks, user groups, and performed in a lab environment as well as in field.', 'HCID-driven Design ProjectThis course is a multi-disciplinary project course with user cooperation in all phases of the project, from a general described theme to a specific and finished result. The project will be reported in different media. The project will be integrated with the Business Development Lab course (part of the I&E minor).', 'Mobile and ubiquitous interaction (KTH - Stockholm)KTH offers a specialisation in mobile and ubiquitous interaction with courses in design, development and implementation of mobile and physical interaction.', 'User modeling (Aalto - Helsinki)Aalto offers a specialisation in advanced machine learning techniques for modelling users and their interactions with computers.', 'Situated interaction (UPS - Paris)UPS offers a specialisation in Interaction techniques using mixed reality, tangible interfaces and immersive virtual environments.', 'Multimodal interaction (TU Berlin)TU Berlin offers a specialisation in speech recognition, emotion and situation recognition, image analysis, vision-based interaction.', 'Intelligent systems (Univ. of Twente)University of Twente will offer a specialisation in intelligent agent-based systems that perform automated reasoning.', 'Affective computing (UCL - London)UCL \\\\x96 London offers a specialisation in affective computing, bringing a human-centred and cognitive perspective to HCI practice.', 'Cognitive interaction (UniTN - Trento)The University of Trento (UniTn) offers a specialisation in cognitive interaction which studies the mental and cognitive processes that are underlaying language, vision and interaction.']
